Maybe it could be done this way:  let's say that the booting has 3 
"checkpoints" - A, B, C.
A - start (0%)
B - drivers are loaded
C - services are running, system is booted (100%)
Before checkpoint A, the system reads from some file - e.g. boottimes - what 
time last every booting phase (for example, after installation in boottimes is 
that AB lasts 10 s and BC lasts 50 s). So in every boot, the system reads 
boottimes and the progress bar behaves depending on the values in boottimes. 
And while booting it also measures the times (between A and B and C) and writes 
them in boottimes after booting finishes. 

And of course, it would be better if the progress bar moved smoothly
between every two checkpoints.
